Featuring guest appearances from Ultra Instinct Shaggy.

Also, another five months of the Tournament of power!? Oh god, the Namek meme has now mutated.

Ha ha ha. What a story, Mark.

Wasn't God forms supposed to be more powerful than non-god fusion? Then again God Goku couldn't even KO SSJ 2 Caulifla, so I don't even know anymore.

At least the fight was cool, and I like how Caulifla and Kale relationship has grown.

My god, what a waste of time. Kale had already been shown getting control over the form, but they threw that odd to waste the first third of this episode being obnoxiously dramatic about it. And how many form changes and power ups does she need to go through? Super bulky, slimmed down bulky, super bulky, slimmed down bulky, back and forth.

But, the new-and-improved Kale is getting overwhelmed by God Goku (despite her power grabbing Blue Vegeta and Jiren's attention), when the less powerful berserk Kale completely tossed Blue Goku around. And Caulifla is able to somehow participate against God Goku... man that form has been devalued so much. Also, Kale's line about "why did it dodge it?" was painfully stupid. At least it's made up for her line "blue or red, let's beat him up all the same". Now, Kafla is so powerful that she makes God Goku shake and easily beats him up... what? Potara has always been powerful, except Vegetto was dismissed as an option for fighting Beerus. But base Kafla way better than God Goku? That makes no sense, given that her individuals should not be that strong without Kale's unique form. And he'll need Blue Kaio-ken for her Super Saiyan form, apparently. Man, they never should have bothered with this weak ass 'God' nonsense to begin with.

edit: Oh, yeah, and that U 3 Police guy is just another sentai parody. Something we'd seen multiple times in the series, and this very arc. At least Freeza's line about ignoring him was funny. Speaking of, nice to see Freeza put in his place by Goku and completely defanged. Lil kitty Freeza

But not insane enough to make pre-God Vegetto relevant.

Better phrased: super multiplier is fucking inconsistent.

Kafla stuff was pretty cool. I'm finally coming around to Kale overall and I think it makes sense for the most part. Obviously, something was going to need to trigger Jiren breaking his meditation, especially with Hit out of the tournament.

I'm wondering though if this fight will force Goku back into Ultra Instinct or if Goku and Vegeta will wind up fusing themselves to level the playing field?

To be fair, Goku did not actually know how strong Beerus throughout any part of that first fight, and I really doubt he knows how strong BoG Vegetto would have been with Goku and Vegeta both having gotten stronger since the Buu Saga, and with Super Saiyan 3 on top of it.

If they continue doing what they're currently doing and having each episode be 1-2 minutes of the Tournament of Power, the Universal Survival Saga going until March of 2018 actually works out pretty well. That's like, only around 20 more episodes. Don't forget that we're still going to have a few episodes after the tournament ends to decompress and have a conclusion to the Saga.

I'm less bothered by the absurd power scaling (which is basically Super's thing now tbh), and more wondering why did we need three episodes for this. Literally nothing happened outside the last 5 minutes that couldn't be covered in one or two episodes.

God I hate this, the pacing was somewhat decent and now it's just slowed to a crawl. We don't even get much focus on other fights to make up for it.

Also, should note that Crunchyroll actually got hacked earlier today, and it took a while for the staff to fix the issue. That probably accounts for the late upload.

[up][up][up][up] I was also thinking we've spent long enough on this bit. The pre-Kafla faffing about has taken up too many episodes by itself.

Anyway, I'm bothered by this power scaling because this is ridiculous even by Super standards, and the Saiyan girls have always been aggravating about this

[up][up] anime bait and switch yuri is cancer

They are really giving people more ammo to hate the Saiyan girls whether deserved or not.

Its not even just the girls, it's just...literally nothing substantial has been happening surrounding them. So it's just really annoying how much focus they're getting but it's really not going anywhere.

There's one thing that's eating at me I consider worth commenting on: WHY ARE POTARA EARRINGS ALLOWED?! It's not like Roshi's bottle where it's not dangerous in itself. It's literally a means to an end. I'd like it at least acknowledged as cheating. Even Zeno excusing it because it's cool would give me something that gets that thing that just bugs me.

I'm sure it'll be acknowledged and handwaived in the next episode since the Zenos find it cool.

And then the question becomes why didn't anyone else think of using the earrings this way?

Hell, the way this is going the other Kaioshin could probably just throw their earrings into the ring.

Ignoring this riveting discussion, I realized that I would have preferred this tournament to have been open for everyone to watch. It would be way more interesting if the entire supporting cast were providing commentary than just the Gods.
